A husband and wife recline side by side on a banqueting couch, propped on cushions, smiling with almond-shaped eyes, as equals at an eternal feast. Found in the Banditaccia necropolis at Caere, it probably held cremated remains. Lively upper bodies give way to flattened legs, a typically Etruscan contrast. Once brightly painted, it was fired in four pieces and then assembled.
